Both have put a lot of thought into who needs to pay. The 39-year-old rapper T.I. claims around $44 trillion dollars are owed, and Ice Cube wants to make “racist” Hollywood elites pay up. Don’t miss this.
Rapper T.I. called for $44 trillion to be paid out as “reparations” to all black descendants of slaves in the United States on Tuesday’s edition of The Breakfast Club radio show.
“This is my goal,” the Ant‑Man and the Wasp actor declared. “My goal is to get every black person in America that’s a descendant of slavery one million dollars, at least. That’ll take about 44 trillion. So that’s my goal, so I’m working up on 44 trillion.”
T.I., who has over 120 acting credits to his name and whose net worth is an estimated $50 million, echoed rapper Ice Cube’s recent call for race-based economic appropriations (including in Hollywood) while urging black Americans to purchase goods and services from black-owned businesses.
These rappers who are both multi-millionaires claim that since blacks make up 13 percent of the nation’s population, they are owed 13 percent of everything.
But, Ice Cube also wants racist Hollywood to pay up.
The rapper and actor, whose real name is O’Shea Jackson, also appeared on The Breakfast Club radio show with Charlamagne tha God and said the studios must pay.
“Virtually all the studios who contributed in our narrative, in our pain, in our misrepresentation, in stealing our history and giving it to white people for over a hundred years,” Ice Cube said. “So I think these studios that we know and love should kick in to a studio that’s ran by black people with no outside influences, and whose movies and projects are owned by those black people.”
Ice Cube also said Hollywood should give more ownership to blacks for their projects.
“Those black artists, those black directors and writers, and people who put the projects together should own the projects – and these studios, they can license the projects, the movies, or the TV shows or whatever, or they don’t have to,” he said.
“We can put them on our own streaming services,” he explained. “I just think it’s a form of reparations from the entertainment industry if they all had to invest a certain amount of money into the studio each year as payment for all the damage they’ve done to black people.”
Ice Cube also added that blacks make up 13 percent of the population, so they should get 13 percent of the money.
“We catching hell no matter who in office, and we always have,” Ice Cube claimed. “So we need to think about who’s gonna’ support this plan, and try to better the whole country… try to do it in across the board, broad manner, because … stomping out little fires here and there, it just ain’t gonna’ cut it.”
“We are 13 percent of this country — more, 13.5 — and we deserve 13.5 percent of the pie, straight up, across the board…We’re not trying to get to reform. We need equality, straight up,” he declared.
“Why reform a system that was geared towards our demise? We need to be equal,” he said.
Ice Cube, a multimillionaire, said he doesn’t feel free in America.
“How the hell are you going to feel free in this country just ‘cause you got money? That ain’t sh*t,” he complained.
This is how the leftist revolution always ends. They start to turn on each other.
“The 1960s protests were for racial assimilation and integration to actualize Martin Luther King Jr.’s agenda of making race incidental, not essential, to the American mindset,” Victor Davis Hanson wrote via National Review.
“Not so with today’s cultural revolution. It seeks to ensure that racial difference is the foundation of American life, dividing the country between supposed nonwhite victims and purported white victimizers, past, and present,” he added.
These Black Lives Matter sympathizers are now turning on the white leftist elites. They too are the enemy and must pay up. So, just sit back and pop some popcorn as we watch them all implode. Once this type of nonsense starts inside the “woke crowd,” it won’t be long before they are all attacking each other, and Americans get back to enjoying a peaceful nation.
